WHITE PAPER

The Benefits of Real-Time Nonclinical Safety Data Analysis

Reviewing data from ongoing nonclinical drug safety studies enables toxicologists to:

  • Monitor findings as the study progresses
  • Adjust study designs in real-time
  • Provide feedback to the drug development team to inform decision-making.

Unfortunately, performing data analysis and visualization while the study is ongoing can be challenging. Contract research organizations (CROs) conduct many of these studies, and they may not provide interim study data to sponsors. If interim data is available, they may be in a format unsuitable for analysis and visualization.

The SEND (Standard for Exchange of Nonclinical Data) format is used for animal data collected in nonclinical toxicology studies. Our white paper explores how the right software helps toxicologists perform real-time data analysis and visualization to make faster, smarter decisions.
